Enjoyed my stay here. The twin room was pretty large - so nice esp since it's renovated shophouse model - and very comfortable. Love the space - great for packing luggage. Bed was comfortable- not too hard not too soft. Shower was great and bathroom brightly lit. Enjoy the fact that getting Grab was convenient and fast. There is a smaller road right at the Hotel lobby door so it is safer for boarding and alighting Grab. Wonderful that there are yummy food nearby. So pleased and pleasantly surprised thatthe famous Sister Yao char kway kak and Michelin recommended Lor Mee & Prawn Mee are soooo nearby! We are pretty close to city centre and it is very quick to get to the attractions. Love it! Some issues with aircon and charging points but i think it is a problem with electricity in an old building. Luckily we could change our room to another one. Do check appliances and electric points etc properly so you can get help to resolve it fast.

Pretty decent budget hotel. Our first room was a queen room which faced the road. This was soooo noisy, we literally could not sleep. The windows are rubbish and couldn't really close properly. We asked to move in the morning and they moved us into a twin room, this was so much better. We slept much better and were happy they could move us. If they were fully booked this would have been an issue as we couldn't have slept in the original room. The room itself was pretty nice. Comfy bed, nice towels (which makes a change in a budget hotel!). The water fountain was a nice touch, it meant we didn't have to buy loads of water and waste lots of plastic bottles. They said they wouldn't come in the room unless we asked them too. I think this is a bit lazy really. I am happy to not have the bed changed every day etc and not have fresh towels as this is better for the environment, but they could pop in sweep/mop the floors, empty the bins and top up tea and coffee.

Vom Standort her ein sehr gutes Hotel, jedoch ist das Hotel arg in die Jahre gekommen. Wir hatten zwar das Hotel zur Strassenseite, jedoch war der Lärm unheimlich hoch. Zudem bestehen keine richtigen Fenster, die man nicht richtig öffnen kann und grünlich farbig sind. Team ist nett und zuvorkommend, habe aber das Gefühl, dass wir bei den Kurzaxen etwas angezockt worden sind (24RM für 2 Nächte). Deposit von 100RM ist ebenfalls nicht vernachlässigen. Alles in allem etwas in die Jahre gekommen und nicht mehr zeitgemäss.

Loud noisy rooms (Queen)

The hotel is clean, nice. However guests should stay away from the Queen bedrooms, they are noisy and loud from the road traffic below. Only queen bed rooms face the road side. Its so loud you may as well just sleep by the road side. Hotel should just brick up the windows or glass them up.

Nice staff. Rooms are very clean and have a nice design. Only negative is that the rooms have very thin windows so you'll hear the traffic very loud in the nights.
